i know... let see if ginting can be a world beater just like gunting which can be a paper beater. hahaha
Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo/Rafiddias Akhdan Nugroho beat the top-seed and reigning AJC champion Edi Subaktiar/Arya Maulana Aldiartama 22-20, 18-21, 21-19. I hope they can nail the BD title tomorrow, regardless of their opponent. PB Djarum ensures one title in BS U-19 as Ihsan Maulana Mustofa faces Thomi Azizan Mahbub in the Final. I think Ihsan deserves a place in the AJC and WJC next year. The XD Final is between the top 2 seeds: the reigning WJC champion Edi Subaktiar/Melati Daeva Oktaviani and Rian Swastedian/Masita Mahmudin. This probably means Rian/Masita will be selected as one of the XD pairs for next year's AJC and WJC. The GS Final is between Hanna Ramadhini and Ruselly Hartawan.
Kevin/Rafi will face Hafiz Faisal/Putra Eka Rhoma who survives a suspenseful decider game against Arsya/Yantoni 25-23. While in GD Melati Daeva/Rosyita Eka and Imma Muthiah/Mareta Dea will face each other in final
I was actually wondering why was Hantoro not fielded? I saw his name in the earlier list. I only realized Yantoni Edy Saputra was playing instead of him. Yet, Hantoro/Arsya Isnanu Ardi Putra [2] and Kevin Ersa/Yantoni Edy Saputra [14] will be fielded next week in the Pertamina Open, along with Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo/Rafiddias Akhdan Nugroho [1], Abu Bakar/Ricky Alverino Sidharta [12], and Tedi Supriadi/Jeka Wiratama [16].
Good. Kevin/Rafi against Hafiz/Putra once again. The score is 1-1 between them this year. I still don't think Edi Subaktiar/Arya Maulana Aldiartama can be a real top world-class pair in MD, despite them winning the AJC. Edi is better suited playing in XD with Melati.
it is look this level is too low for Edi Subaktiar/Melati Daeva and Melati Daeva/ Rosyita, I always see them in Final in any "Taruna" event since last year really want to see them play in "Dewasa" event in Sirnas 2013 (if they are still in Djarum, 'coz I hear that (at least) Edi/Melati will be in PELATNAS next year), Further more I ever saw Melati/Rosyita Win "Dewasa" event this year in PEGADAIAN WALIKOTA CUP that been held in SURABAYA, but hopefully they can fulfill their seeded in this Junior National Championship, hopefully
i think, with a good partner, yantoni can be a AJC or even WJC champ. he is a real talent. very good talent. i really hope that he will not waste his talent like what praveen jordan did before.
Rosyta-Melati played in the Djarum Indonesia Open PSS earlier this year and reached the main draw R32. They lost to Korea's #3 pair in a close rubber set. They also played in the INA GP Gold and reached the SF of Romania's Banuvest International Series earlier in the year. Yantoni is a contender for the 2015 WJC, according to some in the Djarum coaching staff.
I just got the lineup for today's Djarum vs. Jaya Raya matchup at TVRI... Tontowi-Debby vs. Kido-Pia Hayom vs. Adi Pratama Ahsan-Alfiat vs. Kido-Hendra Febe vs. Firda Meliana-Debby vs. Greysia-Nitya ...wowwww, what a close and competitive matchup... it can go 3-2 or 2-3 either way. This is good for badminton.
2015????? Why not 2013? I actually hope Yantoni can be exposed earlier considering his talent. Playing AJC/WJC at 16 yo is not too young as some countries like Thailand already field their 14, 15 yo.
Edi Subaktiar/Melati Daeva Oktaviani confirmed their status as INA and the World's no 1 XD pair for U-19 this year. They beat Rian Swastedian/Masita Mahmudin easily in straight-sets. They are currently unbeatable in U-19 domestically and will be seeded no 1 again in the Open category for the Pertamina Open 2012. It will be really shocking if they can actually win the tourney!
Easy Win by KIDO/PIA 21-8 21-11 againts OWI/DEBBY Pia is too way better than Debby, and it is the most important thing in XD JAYARAYA 1-0 DJARUM Next MS ADI pratama Vs Hayom
